US patent pending It’s all about language Through Life Capability Management is about pan-Defence Line of Development (DLoD) cross-platform strategies that seek to achieve better capability at the front line and better value for money through effecting changes in one or more of the DLoDs and/or exploiting synergies across similar platform types. Through Life Management is about equipment based strategies that seek to achieve better availability or performance at the front line and better value for money through improved support solutions and a more integrated approach to technology insertion, updates and upgrades through life. The key issue is they have a common point of impact …the front line
